ACIDIC

Last fall, ACIDIC unleashed their latest album, the highly-anticipated “Chronic Satisfaction,” to wild and enthusiastic response! The CD is produced by multi-platinum award-winning producer John Ryan (Styx, Santana, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Allman Brothers, etc) of Chicago Kid Productions. The first single off the new album, “Uninspired,” is now getting airplay on FM and internet rock stations across the U.S. and Canada, and its steamy music video is a sudden Youtube sensation. The strength of “Chronic Satisfaction” inspired Music Reviews to name ACIDIC one of its “12 Bands To Watch in 2012.”

ACIDIC first burst onto the scene with the release of their 2010 epic, “Getting Lucky” – a CD that was produced by the award-winning Australian Wizardz Of Oz team of Andrew Bojanic & Liz Hooper (Jason Mraz, Liz Phair, Avril Lavigne). “Getting Lucky” helped land the boys on the Hot AC radio charts with their ballad “Maybe.” It was off the steam of “Maybe” that the boys scored opening slots on tours with heavy hitters such as Alien Ant Farm, Hawthorne Heights, Filter, Marcy Playground, and The Higher. They’ve also toured Kosovo and Germany, rocking US troops with Armed Forces Entertainment. In addition to their smash tours, ACIDIC has also played such prestigious gigs as the 2012 Winter NAMM Show at the Anaheim Convention Center, SXSW ’10 and ‘11, two Sunset Strip Music Festivals, and Bamboozle Left. ACIDIC won the Alternative category in the 18th Billboard WorldWide Song Contest in 2011 for their power rocker “Strata Red” (also from “Getting Lucky”). One of their proudest early accolades was being named the renowned Whisky a Go Go’s LA WEEKLY Band of the Month in March 2010.

ACIDIC, which Alternative Press said “Rocks like Funeral Party, Cage the Elephant, Young the Giant,” consists of lead singer/guitarist Michael Gossard, bassist Ted Dubrawski, guitarist/backup vocalist Michael Thompson, and drummer Matt Whitaker.

After our interview with Michael Gossard we’ll be up to all of our usual fun including our DrinksWinesSpirits.com sponsored “Brewskis” Beer Tasting segment, sports talk, rants, and more.

This week we’ll be tasting Messiah Nut Brown Ale by Shmaltz Brewing Company located in Saratoga Springs, New York.
